We are a Marine Research and Conservation centre based in the midde of the local village in Perhentian. We conduct scientific and conservation research around the marine park, completing underwater surveys on coral reefs, maintaining coral nurseries and engaging with the locals.

By volunteering with us, you can spend a week participating in conservation research, learning about environmental threats and diving in beautiful waters.

Our research element and strong conservation goals, as well as location make us unique to Perhentian.
